integral of cos^4(x)

\int cos^{4} (x) d x

cos^{3} (x) sin (x) + \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)) + C

Solution steps

\int cos^{4} (x) d x

Simplify

cos^{4} (x) : cos^{3} (x) cos (x)

= \int cos^{3} (x) cos (x) d x

Apply Integration By Parts

: cos^{3} (x) sin (x) - \int - 3 cos^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x) d x

= cos^{3} (x) sin (x) - \int - 3 cos^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x) d x

\int - 3 cos^{2} (x) sin^{2} (x) d x = - \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))

= cos^{3} (x) sin (x) - (- \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)))

Simplify

= cos^{3} (x) sin (x) + \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x))

Add a constant to the solution

= cos^{3} (x) sin (x) + \frac{3}{8} (x - \frac{1}{4} sin (4 x)) + C

\frac{\partial}{\partial y} (x y^{2})

x \to 0 + lim (e^{- x})

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} ((x^{2} + 5 x y - 2 y)^{8})

e^{- 5 t} sin (7 t)

\frac{d}{d x} (arctan (2 x^{3}))
